HC Deb 29 October 1946 vol 428 c61W
Mr. Neal

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power how many members of divisional coal boards are over 60 years of age; and if any of them are eligible to superannuation or pension.

Mr. Shinwell

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply which I gave to the hon. and gallant Member for New Forest and Christchurch (Colonel Crosthwaite-Eyre) on 8th October. Apart from the announcements in the Press, I have no information as to the personnel of the divisional coal boards who are appointed by the National Coal Board and not by me.
